Pocket Counters

Squishy backline heroes like Mina, Sinclair, and Silver hate Pocket getting on top of them. He closes distance in a hurry, drops burst before they can react, and slips out through walls and cover so they never get a clean angle to punish him. The trouble comes against durable, self-sufficient bruisers. Seven, Victor, and Graves can eat his burst, out-trade him in a sustained fight, and shut down his escapes with lockdown or raw pressure. Once his opener is used, he's fragile and wants to disengage. Draft tip: pick Pocket to hunt fragile casters, avoid him into heavy frontline brawlers who won't die to one combo.

Pocket wins 46.07% of matches overall (#32 of 38 heroes) since the Matchmaking Update. Its most favorable matchup is Silver at 51.58%; Victor is the toughest counter, holding Pocket to 40.26%.
